Bindings for C library tokyocabinet

[Sven Hartrumpf]

Hi.

I would like to write some C-bindings (using FFI for Chez) to tokyocabinet, which is an efficient key-value store (see http://fallabs.com/tokyocabinet/).
I don't need all functions from tokyocabinet; a coverage like implemented in a Chicken egg http://wiki.call-cc.org/eggref/4/tokyocabinet
would be fine.

Before I start:
1. Are there any (partial) bindings for tokyocabinet around?
2. If not: are there any examples for other key-value stores (dbm, ndbm, gdbm, qdbm)?

Greetings
Sven

Hi,
I did some stuff last year with lmdb...

https://pizzahack.eu/fossil/thunderchez/doc/tip/lmdb.sls
https://pizzahack.eu/fossil/thunderchez/dir?ci=trunk&name=lmdb

I've used c2ffi for extracting the bindings from the c headers

also take a look to this example I've translated from the official sources

https://pizzahack.eu/fossil/thunderchez/doc/tip/lmdb/mtest.ss

https://github.com/LMDB/lmdb/blob/mdb.master/libraries/liblmdb/mtest.c

actually this code is not well tested so take it as it is with no
warranty ;)

this instead is used in production:

Best regards ;)
